Identify Struggling Student

Observe students during instruction, independent work, assessments, and class discussions. Look for not just failing grades, but also signs like inconsistent performance, low engagement, or frustration. I’ll use a class journal to track behavior and academic patterns.

Review Work and Behavior

After identifying the student(s), take a closer look at the student’s work samples and classroom behavior. Talk with past teachers or review their comments on the student’s personalized learning plan.

Provide Targeted Support (Whole Class/Small Group or Individualized)

Use graphic organizers, sentence stems, movement breaks, or small-group reteaching. Document how long the support lasts and whether the student responds positively.

Assess for Language Need

For multilingual learners, use the WIDA English Language Development Standards or consult with your school’s ESOL/ELL team to determine if the student’s challenges stem from English proficiency.

Provide Language Assistance

If a language need is confirmed, implement services such as bilingual support, ESL instruction, and differentiated vocabulary instruction. I’ll monitor their progress frequently. If the student does not respond to language support alone, I may still need to investigate co-occurring learning disabilities.

Assess for Learning Disability

If no language barrier exists or if language support hasn’t helped, I’ll recommend screening for a learning disability; collaborating with my school’s Student Support Team.
